A Step into the Past Chapter 78

Volume 7 Chapter 11

Book 7 Chap 11 – Unable to enjoy

In Zhao Zhi’s elegant little house, Xiang Shaolong leaned on the couch in a relaxed manner while the 2 sisters Shan Rou and Zhao Zhi sat opposite him. The former was staring at him fiercely while the latter still maintained her icy look but her head was lowered in deep thought.

Shan Rou said stiffly, “I asked my sister to invite you here because I hope we can cooperate and deal with Tian Dan!”

Xiang Shaolong already knew he’d meet with this problem so he said, “If you are planning to assassinate him in Handan, forget about getting me to do such a foolish thing with you. Even if you succeed you will not be able to escape.”

Shan Rou’s pretty face turned icy as she replied, “You’re the fool. We’ve already found out that Tian Dan has arrived at the outskirt of the city at dusk today, but he has yet to enter the city. The person escorting him is the famous general of Qi named Dan Chu, and they have an army of about 10,000. Therefore the only chance to kill him is when he is travelling light with minimal men into the city. The few men near that conniving thief, specially those 2 brothers called Liu Zhongfu and Liu Zhongshi, are not only excellent fighters but can tear lions and tigers apart alive. Look!”

She pulled down her collar to reveal almost half of her ample and fair bosom, but on it there is a sword scar that can shock anyone who sees it. 

Xiang Shaolong did not expect her to be so bold. His eyes feasted on her ample bosom for a long time before he nodded and said, “You’re considered lucky to be alive.”

Shan Rou readjusted her clothes, her eyes gleaming as she said, “Isn’t Tian Dan your great enemy? No one knows more about Tian Dan’s affairs other than me. I was once a maid at his residence, so now you understand the benefit of working together with us!”

Xiang Shaolong has no wish to entangle himself with them any further so he sighed, “Actually there’s nothing between Tian Dan and me at all, it’s just that I did not want to hurt the both of you that night, that’s why I followed your story and said that.”

Shan Rou and Zhao Zhi were both dumbfounded.

An icy look came over Shan Rou’s eyes and just as Xiang Shaolong was secretly exclaiming, she has already swiftly pulled out a dagger and leapt towards him like a tigress, the dagger aiming towards his chest.

Xiang Shaolong is extremely experienced in unarmed combat so with a fake move, not only did he grab the wrist of the hand that was holding the dagger, he also threw her over to the other side of the table and pressed down on her like a tiger.

Shan Rou kept struggling and even tried to bite him.

Xiang Shaolong lifted his head and pressed her arms down firmly, his thighs tightened around her pretty legs and at the same time looked warningly at Zhao Zhi, only to see her looking lost and dumbfounded as she watched her sister cursing and struggling under Xiang Shaolong’s body.

Xiang Shaolong put his mind at ease as he started to enjoy the feeling of this body violently running against his, but at the same time he has no idea how to wrap up this horrible situation.

Shan Rou may be a lot stronger than the average woman but how can she fight against Xiang Shaolong, a muscular man of that physique. She struggled a little longer before she toned down, her chest heaving as she stared at Xiang Shaolong with hatred, giving her another air of allure.

Zhao Zhi was still seated at the same place, not moving nor making any noise.

Xiang Shaolong lowered his head to look at this feisty beauty and asked with a smile, “I acted with kind intentions, why is Miss treating me like this?”

Shao Rou cursed, “Liar!”

Xiang Shaolong finally understood that she wanted to kill him in anger because she was lied to, and also disappointed that they no longer have his assistance. From this it can be seen that she actually regards him very highly.

He can clearly hear her heart beating, feel her pulse moving in her energetic body, and smell the faint fragrance from her dainty body. He shook his head and asked with a wry smile, “Still don’t want to release the dagger?”

Shan Rou stared at him angrily for a moment before the corners of her mouth curved disdainfully as she relaxed her hand and let the weapon drop.

The tense atmosphere relaxed and Xiang Shaolong immediately felt the strong sense of their bodies so close together. Earlier Zhao Zhi had already ignited his lust so how can he control himself now. Immediately his body reacted in the most primitive way for a man.

Shan Rou was originally staring at him but suddenly she blushed and her lids closed a little, obviously she has fully felt his manhood pressing down. 

Xiang Shaolong was extremely embarrassed and he said quietly, “If you promise not to attack me again, I’ll release you immediately.”

Shan Rou managed to utter her agreement. The look of a stirred beauty, appearing on the face of this strong and feisty woman, lures one to more imagination. 

Xiang Shaolong threw her dagger towards the corner of the room first before squatting up slowly. He moved towards the wall and leaned there.

Shan Rou was still lying flat, as if she’s lost the ability to get up. Her clothes are now in disarray and split open at the bottom, revealing her snowy white and long thighs.

Xiang Shaolong looked towards Zhao Zhi. This pretty younger sister turned her face away, not looking at him.

Shan Rou jumped up with the agility of a cat and without looking at Xiang Shaolong, uttered a single word through her gritted teeth, “Scram!”

Xiang Shaolong was unaffected and said with a smile, “If Miss Rou chases me away, you will definitely regret it for the rest of your life.”

Shan Rou went to sit next to her sister as her eyes stared roundly at him, “Who do you think you are, just looking at a liar like you is enough to irritate anyone.”

Xiang Shaolong sighed and asked, “Do the two of you love your parents who have met with such misfortune?”

Shan Rou said angrily, “Isn’t that an obvious answer?”

She may be rude but ultimately she was willing to answer the question, so her asking Xiang Shaolong to scram was only said in pique.

Xiang Shaolong tried his best to answer calmly, “To be able to exact revenge but not doing it, can be considered unfilial. But knowing very well that to take revenge is akin to sending yourself to death, causing great grief to departed parents, is also another form of not being filial. Under such circumstances, although living in shame, it’s also a way of controlling oneself and repaying your parents.”

Shan Rou was slightly shaken as she answered quietly, “We don’t need you to reprimand us, go back and enjoy your riches!”

Xiang Shaolong was taken aback, knowing that this woman really has some feelings for him, that’s why she was so furious to find out she was lied to and now her words are filled with reproach.

Zhao Zhi looked towards him and said icily, “Now that everything is made clear, us sisters and you have nothing to do with each other. Mister Dong, please go home and enjoy your sleep! Even if we die, it’s none of your business.”

Her tone of voice was the same as her sister’s. A feeling of pity welled up in Xiang Shaolong’s heart as he asked gently, “Don’t you want to see Shan Lan again?”

Both women trembled suddenly, staring at him incredulously.

Shan Rou exclaimed sharply, “What did you say?”

Xiang Shaolong stood up and went towards this pair of pretty sisters and knelt down on one knee, leaning his head forward to look at the 2 pretty faces and said earnestly, “Please trust me! Shan Lan is now at a very safe place, and has found a good man, waiting for you to meet her.”

The icy look on Zhao Zhi’s pretty face melted as she uttered, “You’re not lying to us again! How could sh have escaped the calamity?”

Xiang Shaolong used Dong Kuang’s name and made a vicious vow.

The 2 girls exchanged look then hugged each other tightly, looking both dejected and overjoyed at the same time.

After the 2 women had settled down a little, Xiang Shaolong said, “I am not one who is bothered about wealth and riches. As for Tian Dan’s matter, because I personally have no enmity with him, it’s difficult for me to plan to kill him, not to mention that it’s a very unwise thing to do. With the situation now, you can kill him but will not be able to escape, and with the chance of success being so slim, why don’t you live well for now and think of another way to deal with him?”

Shan Rou turned her pretty face away to look outside the window. Although she looked as if she’s not listening, but with her character, as long as she’s not saying anything bad, it means that she is already tempted.

Zhao Zhi pleaded with him, “Where is Sister Lan now? How did you meet her. She… she married into your family?”

Xiang Shaolong smiled and said, “Does Miss Zhi want me to lie to you again?”

Zhao Zhi stared at him angrily and pouted, “How I wish I could stab you too!”

Xiang Shaolong grinned, “Why don’t you just punch me!”

Shan Rou turned back again and said with her emotions controlled, “What would make you help us assassinate Tian Dan?” Xiang Shaolong felt his head aching, what he said earlier seemed to be spoken on vain as he slapped his forehead and uttered, “Heavens! So you were not listening to me at all.”

Zhao Zhi asked thru gritted teeth, “If both of us sisters offer ourselves to you at the same time, will you change your mind?”

Shao Rou’s delicate body trembled but she did not say anything, only chewing her lip as she lowered her pretty face, for the first time revealing a look of shyness.

Xiang Shaolong did not expect her to give such an outrageous suggestion and stared speechlessly at Zhao Zhi, who was looking at him unwaveringly. His eyes can’t help but travel past the 2 ladies’ delicate bodies, only to feel his throat go dry. He coughed and said, “Miss Zhi must be joking. It’s not that I do not wish to help, but I have my own reasons which cannot be revealed and I cannot be distracted by other matters.”

Zhao Zhi said gently, “Why not this! If there is really no opportunity, my sister and I will definitely not force you to do on a death mission with us but if there is a chance that we can succeed alive, will you help us fulfill this dream of 7 years? Since we’ve already become your woman, naturally we will not be totally unrelated to you.”

Xiang Shaolong looked at Shan Rou, then looked at Zhao Zhi and was secretly lamenting, worried that if he uses strong words to reject them, he’ll certainly hurt their pride. He sighed and said, “Hai! I am really moved by your sincerity and willingness to sacrifice but I cannot take advantage of others when they are in peril and obtain your precious bodies at this time. Why not this! Look at the situation first before making another plan! Oh, why have I not seen that Uncle Zheng of yours?”

Shan Rou saw that he has changed his mind so her expression warmed greatly. This Dong Kuang’s status is special, smart and an excellent fighter with a lot of men under him. If he helps, there’s no need to worry that things will not succeed.

Zhao Zhi replied, “His health is not so good, so other than fishing for news, we have no wish for him to worry himself over other matters.”

Xiang Shaolong stretched lazily and yawned, “It’s late! I should be going back to sleep too.” The 2 ladies stood up together with him.

Suddenly the 3 of them felt awkward over the ambiguous relationship between each of them.

Xiang Shaolong secretly thought that he’d better escape as soon as possible and exclaimed, “No need to see me off!” and walked towards the door.

The 2 ladies exchanged looks and Zhao Zhi accompanied him to the main door and said, “Will you use my horse?”

Xiang Shaolong remembered her round and firm thighs, her supple breasts and almost wanted to embrace her and have some intimacy with her which he is sure she would not object. However he is not inclined to consider love matters again, and also because of Jing Jun, he forced down this strong urge and said, “No need, it’s not too far away.”

He walked towards the bamboo forest but Zhao Zhi still followed behind him so he said in puzzlement, “Miss Zhi please go back! No need to send me off.”

Zhao Zhi did not say a single word until they went into the darkness of the bamboo forest before she said quietly, “You don’t have to go back.”

Xiang Shaolong’s heart ‘danced’ with joy. By saying that, Zhao Zhi is expressing her wish to offer her precious chastity to him and for a proud person like her, these are difficult words to express.

But he does not have the luck to enjoy this no matter how much he wants to.

He sighed and hardened his heart to reply, “There’s no need for Miss to do this. If you truly like me, there’s nothing more I can ask for but since Miss’s heart is already with another person and it’s not as if you’ve truly fallen for a boorish man like me, then why must you cheapen yourself like this? I’m helping both of you not because I’m expecting rewards!”

Zhao Zhi pounded his back twice hard with her fists and pouted angrily, “I hate you to death!” before turning back and walking away.

Xiang Shaolong shook his head and smiled wryly. He was stoned for a moment before collecting his thoughts and made his way home.

Once he thought of the Sword Meet tomorrow, he became excited again.

The road in front is still foggy but he is confident that he will solve everything.

Although the knows the fate of some of the people in this era, however he has no idea what his own future would be.

No matter what, in this great era of the ancient warring states, life is truly more exciting than what he could have experienced in the 21st century.
